The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 393 - 390: The Feeling of Home

"In ten days, becoming an Assistant Chef, this sounds like sheer fantasy.

This night, Xin Lin was busy until late at night inside Taoyao Pavilion.

Boss Liu was very satisfied with her performance on the first day and formally hired her as a general worker for Taoyao Pavilion, providing one evening meal and a monthly salary of ten silver taels.

This price sounds generous, but for a general worker, it’s already a high wage, second only to that of places like the Great Spirit Restaurant in De Yue Building.

Around midnight, Xin Lin returned to Chu Mansion.

"Little Boss, the boss and that egg have gone out and said they won’t be back tonight." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Ma Jingtian had almost lost himself in thought in Taoyao Pavilion; had it not been for Gui Hu dragging him back, he might have drunk himself into not even being able to tell the directions apart.

Xin Lin nodded; Gui Hu most likely went to cultivate with the Overlord Egg again.

"How did the tasks I assigned to the gang members go?"

As soon as Xin Lin entered Chu Mansion, she started looking around.

After two days of cleanup, the once old and disorderly "Haunted House" had been transformed.

The rampant weeds had been cleared, and the paths in the mansion revealed their original look, flanked by pines and cypresses, with some unnamed flowers blooming exuberantly, emitting a tranquil fragrance in the dark night.

Most of the wing rooms had been tidied and repaired, and bright lanterns hung under the eaves.

The walls had been repainted, and the tiles on the roof neatly align.

From afar, the lanterns bear the "Chu" character, finally looking a bit like a residential place.

In Xin Lin’s previous life, although she was the Female Soldier King and had mansions around the world, none of them felt like "home."

Chu Mansion, Silly Chu, and a group of trustworthy gang members created a warm current in Xin Lin’s heart.

For the sake of maintaining Chu Mansion, the trivial matters at Taoyao Pavilion became insignificant.

"Everything is tidy. The brothers found some seeds in the firewood shed, which seem to be left by people who used to live here. They’re asking Little Boss, there’s an empty space in the backyard, whether we should plant something?"

There’s a back courtyard in Chu Mansion, with several acres of barren land previously overgrown with weeds. After Ma Jingtian had it cleaned up, he pondered about planting some flowers and plants, as that’s what most young ladies like, right?

In name, Silly Chu was the head of Chu Mansion, but in reality, the true decision-maker was Little Boss.

Unfortunately, Xin Lin was far from a conventional young lady.

"What flowers and grasses, plant some vegetables and fruits, isn’t that more practical. Bring me those seeds to look at."

After inspecting the vegetable seeds, which she couldn’t recognize, Xin Lin randomly picked one.

"Alright, I’ll have the brothers plant them tomorrow."

Ma Jingtian said promptly.

"Hold on, I’ll give you the seeds tomorrow."

After obtaining the seeds, Xin Lin returned to her room to examine them. Gritting her teeth, she poured the seeds into the Jade Purification Tank and added some clean water, soaking the seeds in it.

The water from the Jade Pure Spring in the Jade Purification Tank had several benefits to the body, able to rapidly restore vitality. However, it wasn’t an endless resource.

Within one day, only three bottles could be drunk, any more than that would be of no benefit.

Moreover, Xin Lin had also tried it; it seems to only work for Xuanwu Practitioners, not having any effect on her silly father.

This also crushed Xin Lin’s initial plan of selling the Jade Pure Spring to make money.

With the limited use in restoring vitality, the value of the Jade Pure Spring was greatly diminished.

As Xin Lin considered, a sudden thought struck her—how would it be if she used the Jade Pure Spring for cultivation?"
